Syracuse, NY - The Fabius-Pompey and Sandy Creek school districts and Edward Smith elementary school in Syracuse will reopen today.

Fabius-Pompey and Ed Smith were scheduled to stay closed until Monday after students at both tested positive for swine flu. Dr. Cynthia Morrow, Onondaga County's health commissioner, said the reopening was moved up after the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention changed its guidelines on school closings Tuesday.
